Oregon Lakes

My friend, Marc Williamson was recently fishing on Crane Prairie Lake and East Lake in central Oregon. These lakes are known for producing good fish. This time of year it’s almost totally Chironomids—larvae fished deep on an indicator. The best places are in the old river channels and in deep water along high banks. A float tube or other water craft is essential, but there’s nothing quite like a day, half in the water in your tube on a big lake, taking nice browns and rainbows.

The browns of East Lake like Chironomid larvae, too.
